Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[TigersFan101]

Like i said, going by your list of players we are short 3 big body props, we don't have Klemmer, Pole is still learning, Stefs form last year was going backwards, and the backups mmmmmmm

Even that pole is still learning, he was better than all our forwards in the games he played excluding offa
I hope he retains a spot in our 17 to start the year

Was on the Dolphins fb page and their talking about hastings coming over. Their rumours are probably about as rock solid as ours but wouldnt be surprised if hastings looks for that no7 gig like others have said. Hope he stays.

Unless we r throwing Zane Camero to the wolves and have him as the backup 7

He's was below NSW Cup level last season, so I hope not.

By the sounds of it the Batemen signing is a long way off.
Wigan confirmed no formal approach yet and Bateman said he will wait until till after the WC.
Shame as was starting to get a little excited 🙄
Maybe the Klemmer deal can be done

At this stage he has to keep it quiet. Don’t forget Staines said he would be at Panthers next year only to then be announced coming to us. I reckon the deal is done but nothing will be announced until after the WC.

Same song and dance as when we were signing Gildart remember 😉

He bought a house in The Shire not too long ago and he’s said his family is everything to him. Highly unlikely he’ll go Dolphins.

Baseless Prediction:

Klemmer to be announced in the next week or so. Bateman after the WC. Bringing us to 29 players and leaving one space open for next year.

If Brooks goes that’s 28 hey?
Maybe a pommy? Maybe Nathan Brown?

Don’t think Klemmer will be announced till after the WC but hope I’m wrong and hopefully you’re right.

If we sign both and let Brooks go yeah we will be back to 28.

I hope Sheens is being careful and we don't have both Brooks and Hastings leave with the squad we seem to be building. We need a decent organising half, got plenty of options at 6's.

Also has a new Sydney GF - think he'll stay local the only concern imo is Bulldogs

I still can't see where Jimmy Ngutlik fits in ? I know we had an aversion to speed ,Korobete ,Papenhausen ,Addo Carr . He's quick and very promising

Bye bye Nofa

Got to give shifty and Benji props about one thing they seemed to have plugged the leaks coming out of the joint. Most of the stuff coming out seems to be from journo's who get fed by player managers. Not great for us not having too many rumors to sift through but it is what it is.

Square pegs in round holes, it never works. Hastings and AD are not halves. If Brooks goes we have no decent half. Either Sheens has someone in mind, or Api will end up playing half, after the first two losses.

Brooks ain't a half back either

IMHO, stopping the "info leak" would be a good start, but I would not hold my breath🤐

 

[Stevec]

He's played 1 state cup game. The hype train on some players round 'ere is hilarious.

Pump the brakes.

I'd be more worried if he played a heap of games in Nsw cup given our cup side lost nearly every game and conceded a massive no of points .I'm just judging what I saw big ,very fast and can make line breaks .My gut tells me he's got something .

Maybe the club leaks have a bit more of an interest in the info NOT coming out these days....
- If you get my drift?

Contrary to others i think he is a better half by far then Hastings and AD. No,he has not performed as we all expected, but the side was a slow shambles all over the park. Two years ago Hunt and Townsend copped the same hate, but playing in a better side had them firing again. I'm not saying that will happen, but i think Sheens and Marshall will keep him, and get him to work overtime on his kicking game. If not, we need a new half, not Hastings and AD.
